Arranged purchase of my new car today, more than a bit chuffed as I've been waiting a while for this day, it's a 56 plate Z4MC, Ruby black with champagne leather, heated seats, piano black trim, PDC, nav, on 107k with fsh and runs great, Will be getting the rod bearing shells done immediately to be safe. My current car will be for sale very soon at around £7k if anyone's interested. The next week or so is going to feel like an eternity until I collect it! Thanks to all for advice info and help, especially to Marc aka D4dawg who came with me to see the car. Happy as a pig in shite!

Lovely looking car. Looks to have been lowered a bit already and The wheels look great.

Congratulations - ruby black is beautiful in the sun, and those wheels are utterly luverly

For gawds sake get those exhaust tips scrubbed soon though

Nice looking car, looks low is it on H&R springs?

Could just be 19" wheels ?

Thanks for the replies all, I love Ruby black too, and after both diamond black and Sapphire black BMW's in the past it's nice to have a different shade, and I love how it changes in the sunlight.
I don't think it's lowered, but very wide wheels on very low profile tyres might be having that visual effect.

Bing the wheels will be for sale as they're not to my taste, you'd be welcome to purchase them if you like

Nice

So you've got the right engine.

Just that tin top to sort now.

And a proper Aerial.

Looks great, aside from the wheels

Thanks buzy, I'm afraid I'm a die hard member of the stubby club so that won't be changing.

Fishy Dave, couldn't agree more, Will be changing them for something a little more German

Nice one on the purchase looks nice

would you mind sharing how much? Surprised the seller didn't polish the chrome tips! It's definitely sitting on h&r lowering springs

Let's just say I paid a fair price I was happy with considering it could do with discs all round, rear brake lines are a bit corroded and needs a front end respray as its very stone chipped. Needs a damn good clean all round!

Stunning

Don't mind the wheels. Seen worse.

Looks great (not the wheels though!), well done

I think buying a high miles one of these at the moment is a great shout. They're relatively devalued imo and if you intend to use it I can't see you loosing much, if any money. Refresh the same things that you'd probably do anyway on a 70k car and you'll have a sweet running M for I imagine a LOT less cost than some buying into these at low miles. Enjoy
